So you figure you will install a cheap faucet this time. "We're kinda strapped for cash. Why pay hundreds of shekels when I can purchase one for 130? Alright, so it might not last long and we will need to change it in a few years. I can live with that."

Well, there is one scenario which you did not conjure: the tubing of a cheap faucet can burst.

Do you want to come home to a flooded apartment? Are you prepared to endure the stress, loss of personal items and expense involved?

Plumbing is one part of your budget you do not want to go cheap on. You just read one of many reasons why.
